Rust removal

A number of nuts/bolts and parts from the 5.0 are coated in rust and the thought of going over each one with a wire brush did not appeal to me. I went to Home Depot and picked up some Zep Lime and Rust remover and soaked the parts overnight. Here is what the motor mounts look like before and after:

I put only half the motor mount in the Zep so you could see what it does. To stop the effects of the solution, I rinse the parts off with water then spray with paint or WD40.
